As you age, you forget who it was you wanted to call. You forget where you placed your phone, car key or spectacles or the names of beloved people and places. You walk in the kitchen intentionally for something and stand there bewildered as you struggle to remember. Then as you returned to the dinner table to have your meal, it was a fork (yu guh in deh fah) – translation – for which you went to obtain.

You never forget that which you were taught repeatedly though. “Before God and all mankind, I pledge the love and loyalty of my heart, the wisdom and courage of my mind, the strength and vigor of my body in the service of my fellow citizens, I promise to stand up for Justice, Brotherhood and Peace, to work diligently and creatively, to think generously and honestly, so that Jamaica may, under God, increase in beauty, fellowship and prosperity, and play her part in advancing the welfare of the whole human race.”

If you yearn ‘to work diligently and creatively” you could be a great fit for Team Eye on Jamaica. Our work is in service to the vulnerable and underserved people of Jamaica. We meet them where they are and serve them with dignity and respect. If this resonates with you, become an EyeonJamaican today. There are no limitations as you can serve from where you are. Become a donor, partner or sponsor and power the movement.
